Minks Released From Farm

It was reported this morning about 5:30 a.m. that an estimated 100 minks were released from a farm near Keota. The farmer’s neighbors assisted in rounding up the minks. Washington County Sheriff Jerry Dunbar states that it looks to be a local prank, but that the department is not ruling out involvement of an animal rights group. Dunbar requests that if neighbors or anyone has information to please contact the sheriff’s office.
